Willow by Julia Hoban

Seven months ago, on a rainy March night, sixteen year- old Willow’s parents died in a horrible car accident. Willow was driving. Now her older brother barely speaks to her, her new classmates know her as the killer orphan girl, and Willow is blocking the pain by secretly cutting herself. But when one boy —one sensitive, soulful boy—discovers Willow’s secret, it sparks an intense relationship that turns the “safe” world Willow has created for herself upside down.

Told in an extraordinary fresh voice, Willow is an unforgettable novel about one girl’s struggle to cope with tragedy, and one boy’s refusal to give up on her.

Call me crazy, but I love sad books. Plus sad books always go with sad seasons, and winter is a sad season. There's no sun. So, you know, if I read it now it would fit perfectly. Ha!

This book sounds so good, it's not even funny. AND a sensitive guy? Call me ready to read in an instant!

About Me

I'm currently 23 years old. I am in the last semester of my college degree, and will graduate on December 10, 2016 with a Bachelor in Science degree in Secondary Education with a double major in Mathematics and History. Upon graduation, I will be able to teach 6-12 grade mathematics in Michigan, and will (hopefully) have a teaching job come the 2017-2018 school year.
I am engaged to a wonderful man who supports me becoming a teacher - and the time that I have to commit to my job for me to feel successful. If I am not working on stuff for school, then I am talking about the stuff that I want to work on for school! We will be getting married on May 20, 2017.
Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, crocheting, and knitting. I am also known to binge watch a ton of shows on Netflix.
